Strategic meeting in Barcelona
In the course of this Wednesday, the representative of Dani Olmo had a decisive meeting with Deco, the sporting director of FC Barcelona, in the Catalan capital. The Blaugrana team is firmly determined to carry out an important action to incorporate the midfielder from RB Leipzig. Olmo is considered one of the club’s top targets, along with Nico Williams. The strategy is to sign both footballers, although before that it will be necessary to get some key player out of the squad.
Message of calm and expectations
Deco shared with Olmo’s agent the club’s plan to address the player’s signing. He asked her to remain calm, acknowledging that the process may stretch throughout the summer. However, Dani Olmo is excited about the prospect of wearing the Barça shirt, although he would do so under certain conditions.
An attractive contract
Dani Olmo’s agent revealed to Deco the amounts expected to be negotiated with the player’s future contract. Through this deal, Olmo would become one of the best-paid footballers in the team, behind only Robert Lewandowski and Frenkie de Jong. The circle close to Olmo considers that the footballer has the experience and talent required for Barça to see him as a high-level signing, thus justifying the figures that are expected.
Gündogan’s dilemma
The arrival of Dani Olmo at FC Barcelona could involve a dilemma for one of the team’s most outstanding players. Recently, a proposal from Qatar for Ilkay Gündogan was leaked. The club’s management would be open to the idea of allowing his exit to facilitate Olmo’s entry. The German coach, Hansi Flick, has made it clear that he wants to count on Olmo as a midfielder, considering that he fits his style better than Gündogan.
The aspirations of the Catalan wing
Dani Olmo is not looking to come to Barça to occupy a secondary role. He wants to have a significant presence and be part of Flick’s starting eleven. He is convinced that he has the necessary qualities to achieve this. With Pedri still recovering, Gündogan in the air and Fermín in the process of maturing, Flick believes that Olmo would be the ideal solution to occupy the position behind the center forward, and that is why he is pushing hard to facilitate his integration into the new project of the club
